If you do not live close to a branch and cannot scan either with a computer or a smart phone, you have to mail in deposits. USAA provides postage paid envelopes for this purpose.

I don't believe you can make a deposit at any ATM location. You used to be able to make deposits at FedEx or UPS stores (although I don't know if this is still in effect).

By far, the best way to deposit if mobile banking. If you have an iphone/blackberry/droid, you can take a picture of the front/back of the check and deposit it. I do this all the time and it is so easy. The other option is that you can open a local bank account and hook it to your USAA account online, and then transfer funds easily through USAA's web interface between accounts. So you can deposit locally (via the banks ATM) and transfer the funds into your account.

No, you have to go to a UPS store and use their scanner or use your phone/home scanner if you qualify. To qualify you or your parent have to have served.

This is an issue I have with USAA. Your options are to go to a participating UPS location or snail mail them to an address they provide. And what I found out with them is you have to take out a loan with USAA in order to qualify for depositing your checks at home. It doesn't make sense and USAA lacks BIG TIME in depositing money features.

You can download a mobile app on either an iPhone or Droid and do a mobile deposit by taking pictures of the checks and following the instructions, and these are deposited instantly. Or, you can request deposit forms which will be mailed to you with return envelopes and deposit via mail. The final option is to open a dummy account at a local bank and just transfer deposited checks to USAA.

You can request deposit envelopes that you simply endorse the check, place in the envelope and drop in any mailbox. Your check will be deposited into your account as soon as they receive it. Process works great!

You can deposit a check using your smartphone via "USAA Mobile Banking" (i think that is the appropriate name) Also there is the tried and true mail in deposit slip, but im pretty sure that they will only accept checks via mail as well. Hope this helps you out. Happy holidays

One way (what I did) is to open a local checking account, deposit there, create a link between the banks and transfer the funds into USAA via Internet transfer. After set up it takes a few days for the transfer (3 banking days usually) Of course, direct deposit is the best and fastest way.

Good Luck

You could always mail them in, but I know of no non-USAA ATM that allows deposits. You can deposit your checks into a local bank and do an ACH transfer to your USAA account, but I would recommend using Deposit@Home. I have used the Deposit@Home function a few times and have been very impressed. I just bought an iPhone so I can make the deposit process even more convenient.

answer 11

Some ATM's accept deposits by scan, if it doesn't look like a new machine probably not.

You can also visit select UPS stores (being rolled out on a store by store basis - 2k places eventually) or they have actually started opening a few tiny USAA branches in large metro areas (also being rolled out - under 10 physical locations open so far).

You can also request deposit envelopes by mail. USAA mails them to you in packs of 10, and they're prepaid, so you don't have to worry about stamps. You fill out the attached deposit slip with your info and the list of check numbers and amounts and toss them in the mailbox. To order envelopes, click on your checking account online and look on the right side where it says "I want to...." Under the "View More Services" dropdown list, you can click on "order deposit envelopes" under the deposits heading.

Domestic and international U.S. dollar wire requests received by 4 p.m. CT, Monday through Friday, will be processed the same day.

Foreign currency wire requests received by 4 p.m. CT, Monday through Friday, will be processed same day. (International requests only)

Allow 2–7 banking days for international wires in foreign currency or U.S. dollars to post.

Allow one business day for domestic wires to post.

All wires are subject to funds availability verification. USAA cannot guarantee the exact time the beneficiary account will receive the credit due to varying processing times from bank to bank.

It depends on what kind of transfer you're referring to. Wire transfer are $20. Funds transfers are free. Call USAA to verify the transfer you're referring to is possible with the means you prefer.

You can always request a deposit envelopes from USAA. They are mailed to you. You then can get a postal money order and fill it out to yourself. Mail the postal money order filled out to yourself, endorsed by yourself, and then mailed back in the deposit envelope.

answer 2

Unfortunately since USAA does not have many branches, making electronic transfers would be your only avenue for making a deposit to your USAA account. Keep in mind, if you add your external bank account to USAA.com, you will be able to request the funds from that account and up to $300 will be made available to you immediately, rather then sending the funds from the external bank account which can take longer and could possibly even have a percent surcharge or flat fee to transfer the funds.

If you need to convert an account to a 'joint type' I'd suggest contacting USAA (ask if they can become a member and get a separate login as well etc).

Else on your own self-serve you can open another joint (but it will be a new separate account #, different checks, and be sure to update any direct deposit pay stubs if you plan on closing the single account).

Yes you can. Here is the informaton on how to do it. Just click (or copy/paste) the link below.

Not on the USAA website. The reason: the other bank must have an account and 'routing' #... and 99% of the time, foreign banks do not have a routing # they have 'swift codes'.

Can I deposit checks made out to my LLC?

I don't need a business account, but I sometimes get checks made out to an LLC that I own. Will USAA allow me to deposit those checks in to my personal checking account? I can provide paperwork upfront that confirms I am the owner of the LLC.

An LLC is a Limited Liability Corporation which in turn is its own entity. Hence, I do not believe they can deposit checks made out to it into your personal account. You and your LLC are separate entities...Besides, even if they could you would not want to do so because you would then be blurring those lines of separate entities...

No. The only reason is because the bank where the money is coming from will not honor the deposit. You must deposit those checks into the account it belongs to.

Under your My Accts screen there is a tab that says Payments on it. Clickon the tab and set up your bills and then you can set them to draft automatically or pay them whenever you want.

Absolutely and it works like a charm. I receive e-mails from USAA when certain bills arrive, requiring future payment. For other bills that are not linked with USAA, it is so simple to set up the payments for whatever date you wish- future or present. Easy to use and dependable, I am very satisfied with USAA's bill-pay program.

Question

If you overdraft your account, does it affect your credit score?

I was driving across country, and accidentally overdrafted my account. I have never done this before, and am trying to correct it asap, but it is difficult to because USAA only allows MasterCard for cash advance. I sent money to my account, but it will not arrive in my account until roughly around the 13th. I overdrafted on the 7th. Does anyone know if the overdraft will affect my credit score?

No, your credit score will not be impacted.

However, if you remain overdrafted for an extended period, it will show up on a system called ChexSystems. Anytime you try to open a new checking or savings account, any bank in the US will run a ChexSystems report and they can see you are overdraft and owe USAA money.

If you correct the overdraft within a few days don't worry about it, no one will know.

For future reference. We always have our checking account tied to an overdraft account such as savings or credit card in case of such an occurance. There is no fee for that service and it certainly saves all those other EXPENSIVE returned check etc fees you incur.Second, no it shouldn't affect your credit score if you resolve the overdrafts and make good on your payments. Otherwise the vendor may have the right to contact credit reporting agencies.

Was the message specific like it recognized they were slightly different/travelers checks? Or was it just a bad scan? (weaker camera, background, etc)

I'd still try Deposit@Home from a computer with a scanner when you get the chance.

If not the deposit envelopes are free and painless (minus the short wait for processing) - you can even take a copy of them first for 'insurance' should they be lost in transit.
